Work camping is one of the most effective ways to stay on the road without paying for campsites  and still make money. In this episode of our Nomad Solutions series, we talk to two real vanlifers with different experiences using work camping and campground hosting as a tool to stay mobile, safe, and self-reliant.

We cover:

• How to find legit workamping jobs

• What the work is actually like

• How much you can expect to make

• Trade-offs of living where you work

• Whether it’s sustainable for full-time nomads

This episode is all about real-world tools to stay free, mobile, and financially afloat even as laws tighten and public land disappears.

Van life Solutions in a Changing World a limited podcast series for nomads, full-time travelers, and van lifers facing the growing restrictions on vehicle dwelling and public land access.

With laws like Idaho’s SB1142 banning overnight vehicle camping, and increasing pressure from cities and federal agencies, we’re entering a new era ,one where self-sustained van life is no longer guaranteed.

So, what now? That’s what this series is here to explore. In each episode, we’ll dive into practical, tested alternatives that nomads across the country are using to stay mobile, legal, and housed from house sitting and work camping to renting private land and building community-owned spaces.

This isn’t a ‘how to live in a van’ podcast. This is a ‘how to keep living in one’ podcast. Let’s talk solutions.

Is nomadic parenting empowering… or exploitative?In this episode of the podcast, we unpack a conversation the vanlife and RV community needs to have: where do we draw the line between sharing our journey and exploiting our children for content?

🎧 We explore:

• The beauty of raising kids on the road

• When documenting becomes monetizing

• Red flags in family content creation

• Consent, digital privacy, and long-term harm

• What ethical nomadic parenting really looks like

As vanlifers ourselves, we’ve seen both ends of the spectrum. This isn’t about cancel culture, it’s about protecting kids, reclaiming the narrative, and doing better.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Iman—a survivor, writer, mother, and van lifer—who bravely shares her journey of being “thrown away” after a narcissistic marriage that spanned continents. From finding love in Egypt that would soon reveal to be anything but, to rebuilding her life on her own terms in the U.S., Iman opens up about the financial, emotional and even physical toll of narcissistic abuse, the healing process, and how van life became her path to freedom and self-reliance.

We dive into the real definition of narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), how women, and even men can be victims of  partners and parents with NPD. In this episode we discover van life can be a legitimate escape route and healing tool for survivors.

Whether you're healing from toxic relationships, exploring alternative lifestyles, or seeking stories of transformation and resilience—you don’t want to miss this conversation.
